Doomsday would probably be a huge bummer… you and everyone you know annihilated — every human achievement, every memory, every cone of gelato erased. But if we’re choosing apocalypses out of a lineup, if the world is going to end, I think a monster might be our kindest method of exit.
Nearly every mythology has a creature whose job it is to wipe things clean come Armageddon — it’s strangely universal. And I’d argue that’s because, ironically, it’s the gentlest ending we can imagine.
